The configure script should find ffcall in the standard locations ... /usr/lib
/usr/include ... if it's not using it automatically then the problem is most
likely
that you forgot to install a version of the objc runtime that supports it.
Probably you need to get the package from -
ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/libs/libobjc-0.9.0.tar.gz
If you build and install that (it should go in the /usr/GNUstep area) then
the configure program should detect that it supports ffcall, and try to use
the ffcall library.
